I never really thought about it, It's always been just a day that I didn't even question. I went shopping at Target for Black Friday yesturday for the first time (I had never gone shopping on Black Friday). It was not a good experience. The deals were not "WOW", and the store was basically empty.... Awkward! Liked the video very much though; both Rhett and Lin made good points.

My power or health bar certainly decreases in a shopping mall or centre (as we say in Australia) greatly if I don't know what I'm looking for and hoping to find it. That's why 95% of the time, I have a game plan. In and out with the goods - no fuss - TRUTH!!! :)

Viki says "Black Friday, September 24, 1869 was caused by two speculators’ efforts, Jay Gould and James Fisk, to corner the gold market on the New York Gold Exchange. It was one of several scandals that rocked the presidency of Ulysses S. Grant."
